I don't mind sharing the love, and I think there are more than enough clients to go around if we all utilize our personal networks and do our very best work!<br /><br />I would advise against doing too many free sessions though. You will burn out, and people don't take your seriously if you don't charge at least a little. I did $100 sessions all summer, and I was surprised how often people would reschedule on me, back out at the last minute, etc, especially since I didn't require a date deposit. I thought it was very rude to devalue my time and efforts like that. Also, all the time you spend editing is SO worth charging at least $50-$100 a session. Photographers here in Austin charge crazy amounts for family sessions and prints, so the clients you work with will STILL be getting a crazy good deal, even if you charge a bit. And you won't start to resent the work, since you're making some $! :)Jennihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342192960991876373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538023075837347806.post-11060322648211884862012-10-01T22:48:15.229-04:002012-10-01T22:48:15.229-04:00That's amazing your doing this. You're fol...That's amazing your doing this. You're following your dreams. I just took a leap and decided to just write my own blog. A small kind of thing compared to many. But terrifying none the less. What are people going to think of me. But I learned you can only be true to yourself. And that's what I am doing. I will grow with it like you will grow in photography. You have inspired me to take the risk and you'll be happier later down the road than regretting it when you don't and end up wishing you had. I wish I lived in Austin. Maybe a road trip would be appropriate? Haha! <br /><br />Cristina Marie <br /><a href="https://www.chezcristinamarie.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">C'est Une Belle Vie</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947914759707636363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538023075837347806.post-47025071627747959062012-10-01T20:10:50.193-04:002012-10-01T20:10:50.193-04:00You're so talented I wish I lived in Austin!You're so talented I wish I lived in Austin!My-cliffnoteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10374902485536313140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4538023075837347806.post-60195590664611387042012-10-01T19:08:31.201-04:002012-10-01T19:08:31.201-04:00SO exciting!
